Modern Theology by Rachel Muers

Modern Theology by Rachel Muers

Muers and Higton provide a lucid guide to the development of theology since 1789, giving students a critical understanding of their own modern assumptions, of the origins of the debates and the fields of study in which they are involved, and of major modern thinkers.

"Muers and Higton have managed to write a textbook that is both astoundingly comprehensive and thoroughly engagingOften teachers of modern Christian thought feel the need to choose between historical context and theological content. With its artful juxtaposition of explanation, analysis, and reflection, Modern Theology manages to combine both without sacrificing the integrity of either. Not only will this book prove an invaluable asset in the classroom, but it is one of those all-too-rare texts that students will continue to consult long after the term has ended." - Ian A. McFarland, Candler School of Theology, Emory University, USA

"Lucid, readable and reliable-- students of modern theology will find this an enormously useful guide." - Karen Kilby, University of Nottingham, UK
